Lyrics

Drive by my house late at night

You can see from the freeway above

No silhouette, but a light left on

Burning there for love

Smoke is rising from the fire

Coming out my back door

I'm inside, sound asleep

Cigarette on the floor

Burning there for love

Well I can still remember

A couple of years ago

When the smoke and flame from our names

Was a burning house of love

Yeah, a burning house of love

A burning house of love

Burning house of love

Burning house of love

That rusty nail over our front door

Is where I hung our tears in the rain

I threw that horseshoe into the weeds

To see what luck can bring

To see what luck can bring

Now you're in your bed, and I'm in mine

On either side of town

I think I might take a ride

And burn your love house down

Like a burning house of love

Burning house of love

Well I can still remember

A couple of years ago

When the smoke and flame from our names

Was a burning house of love

Yeah, a burning house of love

A burning house of love

Burning house of love

Burning house of love
